There are a lot of cameras out there that have no attachment for filters. Mostly, this isn’t a problem, but every now and again you will want to get a little bit more creative, obviously! I was thinking about how to solve this problem, and then Rolf sent me a tip: Why not just use a short piece of PVC linkage to connect it?
The idea is as simple as brilliant, of course. And the upside is that if you use rubber bands to hold the filter holder against the camera, you don’t have to leave any marks on your precious camera either! It’s only a couple of quid worth of materials, and it works brilliantly.
